Hello Raj
  You probably know this, but this is a new feature (11.2) in which XA transactions span across multiple instances with GTX background process (btw, this leads to interesting side effects). If you are not using this new feature, I don't see an issue disabling the feature.   I am sure, this is probably a bug, but if you aren't sure, try disabling the feature and test it.
Cheers
